Award BB Card Error

Makonnen · 08-23-2023, 11:46 AM

Just passed the first Awards in league history. Players have all-star bb cards, but that might have been from ootp23. When I hit the "submit awards" button, a dialog box appears saying

create_bb_card - could not open folder ootp24

The box repeats a few times (assuming once per awardee), and then disappears. Awards seem to be awarded on player pages (they get the icon by their picture), but do not appear in the league history pages.

The bb_card folder and templates exist in the predictable place in the Steam directory structure\data

I've been fiddling with this on and off today. I don't care about not having the baseball cards, more concerning is the awards not appearing in the league history. My (possibly incorrect) assumption is them not appearing there is tied to the process that is breaking on the folder access.

For the templates make sure there is an "ootp24" folder in bb_cards/templates/. If there isn't copy the "ootp" folder and name it "ootp24".

The award history section doesn't get updated until you roll over to the pre-season.

Copying the directory seems to have worked perfectly. THANK YOU, Ktulu!
